Contrary to Tiangang? The US aircraft carrier suddenly withdrew overnight, and the South Korean defe

In recent years, the U.S. team has been stepping up high-intensity operations and demanding "winning two high-intensity battles at once." However, taking into account the arms support provided by the United States to Ukraine, it can be seen that the amount of arms they have is not satisfactory. As can be seen from the news in the West, the US arms reserves are in a state of extreme tension. The war in Gaza, the war in the Red Sea, American aid to the Ukrainian army, have all been cut off, not because they don't have enough **, but because they need to solve their own arms problem.

How could the Americans, without much munitions, make such a high-profile announcement that they could "win two high-intensity battles at once"? As everyone knows, the United States won the three campaigns in the Persian Gulf, Kosovo, Afghanistan, and Iraq in less than three months. Although Afghanistan and Iraq have a history of more than 10 years, they have been "law and order wars" all these years, and although for a long time, the United States has greatly limited its power in this area, but their ammunition consumption is very small. However, the Russian-Ukrainian war has entered a war of attrition, and the large amount of ** ammunition provided by the Biden administration to Ukraine has led to a large number of insufficient arms reserves, or there is a danger, which is due to the need for the Ukrainian military to provide military assistance to Israel, so the United States has to stop providing military assistance to Ukraine.

Everyone knows that the contradiction between Russia and Ukraine is actually a "** war" launched by the United States, and Washington wants to reduce Russia's power through Ukraine. However, Ukraine has now become an "outcast", and defeat is only a matter of time. Now Europe is in chaos, the Middle East is in chaos, and all of this is inseparable from the United States. It can be said that as long as the United States is there, the security situation there will become very bad. Recently, US news reported that the US fleet will establish five aircraft carrier battle clusters in the Western Pacific. Earlier, the United States sent three aircraft carrier battle clusters in the Western Pacific region, and two more are also on the verge of arrival. The build-up of five US aircraft carrier formations in the waters of the western Pacific has aroused great attention from all countries in the world.

According to U.S. news reports, the deployment of almost half of the aircraft carriers in the Western Pacific is not only a strong commitment to regional alliances and partners, but also a powerful warning and deterrent to North Korea and China. Some people believe that in the two major military struggles of the United States in Europe and the Middle East, the Southwest Pacific is still the primary strategic orientation of the United States. Since Yoon Suk-yeol took office, especially since the beginning of this year, the United States and South Korea have frequently held military exercises in the peninsula, and even nuclear aircraft carriers and nuclear submarines have arrived on the peninsula one after another, exerting "maximum pressure" on North Korea. However, in the face of the military deterrence of the US-South Korea alliance, North Korea has not been easy to follow, and has frequently tested its strategic and cruise missiles to demonstrate its strong force.

Just when everyone thought the United States would "put maximum pressure" on North Korea, an American aircraft carrier retreated overnight. According to a report by Globe.com, the USS Carl Vinson, USS Lincoln and USS Washington were originally planning to sail to the Western Pacific, but at night they suddenly turned around and retreated in the direction of the United States. "Reagan" was still undergoing repairs at Japan's Yokosuka Naval Base and could not go to sea, so it had to be put on hold for the time being. Therefore, the "Roosevelt"-class aircraft carriers are still roaming the waters of the Philippines, which makes South Korea very worried. Prior to this, the Yoon Suk-yeol administration had repeatedly spoken harshly about South Korea, not only to remove North Korea's nuclear power, but also to threaten to end North Korea's rule. However, to South Korea's surprise, while they were hopefully waiting for the United States to "exert maximum pressure" on the DPRK, the American aircraft carrier took advantage of the night to retreat and returned to its own mothership.

For this reason, South Korean Defense Minister Shin Won-hyun even warned the United States: If the DPRK's "intimidation" makes the United States suspicious and reneges on the ROK-US alliance treaty, the United States should withdraw from the position of "world leader." From the perspective of the United States, these statements are undoubtedly a subversion of Tiangang and ignorance of oneself. So, South Korean journalists hastened to add that the South Korean defense minister's implication is that "no matter what happens, the South Korea-US alliance should be maintained." However, this reason is not valid, and the words of the Minister of Defense of the Republic of Korea are undoubtedly threatening the United States, and they are also expressing their lack of confidence in their own strength. It should be noted that South Korea has always regarded the US-ROK alliance as an important foundation for maintaining its own strength, and out of respect and trust for the United States, South Korea is obedient to everything the United States. However, when the situation between the DPRK and the ROK was becoming increasingly tense, the US aircraft carrier suddenly retreated at night, which in the eyes of the ROK defense minister was tantamount to "drawing wages from the bottom of the kettle" and thinking that the ROK had been abandoned.

At the same time, as the US elections approach, Trump is likely to return to the White House, which is a sign that he is likely to reverse the foreign policy of the previous term. Given South Korea's heavy reliance on U.S. security, there is a good chance that Trump will sacrifice South Korea for his own maximum gain. Now, the power of the United States has begun to decline, and even the Houthis in Yemen cannot deter them, let alone North Korea or China. As a lackey of the United States, South Korea can only put itself in a worse position. The United States has always put American interests first, and if South Korea insists on going its own way, it is very likely to become a second Ukraine.
